    TBH I love the city work, navigating the jungle with a big(little) truck and trailer is fun to me. Down in Charleston, didn’t see much of a difference in pay. Got some per diem but fewer hrs so it basically evened out. And gone most of the week in a hotel was no fun, but hey I was glad to help

    There is a lot of monotony in this new job, but I've kept telling myself, "get my 40 hrs in, anything after that is better". We get time-and-a-half after 40 and when I got home last night, I was already 3 hours over, so everything today will be VERY good.

    I'm sure @Matt1924 has figured this out, but it's still a bit strange to me, as a 28 year OTR driver, to drive less than 200 miles/day and make really decent paychecks. @Texas_hwy_287 you've worked in LTL for a long time now, and @Kstrong86 is a team driver in LTL, and I can already hear y'all saying, "that's what we've been trying to tell everyone !!!!"

    Well that was good you was able to help. You was able to go to another state and city and help those that needed. When I was in the city I use to love it too. It was challenging but fun at the same time.

    My Friday was good. Got back at 11pm. Everything went smooth. I was hoping they had some extra runs this weekend but no luck so it will be a nice and relaxing weekend for me

    Yea it doesn’t take much to make good money in LTL. So glad I was able to get in. Can’t see myself in any other part of this trucking industry but LTL.

    I may have an opportunity to get on board with AAA here in Nashville. Not quite sure yet.

    I talked to a recruiter today... said he could get me on the docks for awhile (whatever that means) and then get me a driving position. I did get my CDL A (Jan 2019) but don't have any OTR experience... yet. Don't want to do OTR unless I have too.

    So, exactly how difficult (physically) is the dock work with AAA ?

    How is driving P&D Combo driver in a dense city like Nashville ?
